HFrOm Atlanta to the Sea-"

It was thirty. one days after start
ing from Atlanta before Sherman re-
opened communication with the
North. In that time he had destroy
ed 200 miles of railroad, and broken
up every connection between the con-
federate forces east and west of
Georgia. He had done more than
$1OO,OOO,OOO worth Of damage, con-
sumed the corn and fodder, as we'll as
cattle, hogs, sheep and poultry OF a
region 800 miles long and sixty broad /,
carried away 10, 600 horses and mules
and liberated countless numbers of
slaves. Sixty thousand men and 3d.
600 animals had been abundantly
fed, and when the troops reached the
coast they needed no provisions but
bread. They started with 5000 head
of cattle and arrived with 10000.
The teams were in splendid condition
and not a wagon was lost on the
road. The army had captured so
many horses that Sherman ordered
them to be shot because it democrat.
lied the troops to ride.
The success Of the campaign was
equal to its daring, and although its
dangers proved less in reality than in
anticipation, the skill of the COM
mander and the courage OF the men
are none the less to be admired. The
romantic character OF the march is
unsurpassed. That an army should
disappear from sight for a month,
marching unframed through hostile
regions, its whereabouts unknown to
it's friends. and emerge at last as il
out OF a wilderness, with undiminish-
ed numbers and increased renown, is
a circumstance that equals in interest
any in history; and SO long as Ameri-
can boys and girls read the accounts
of the nations achievements they
will find no chapter more fascinating
than that which tells OF Sherman's
march to the sea.--St. Nicholas.

A Square Statement by a Carpenter

amounting to nothing short OF consump-
ton. saw how others in like condition
had been cured by the use Of DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery. and resolved to
test it's merits in my own case. The re-
suits are SO plane as hardly to require a
bitstock or any auger.ment in favor OF
this great remedy. It does awl it claims!

foundation, hinges entirely on the compass
OF this wonderful Restorative, having tried

Boston Globe.
One of the first OF many stories set
afoat about the craze for the
gems was OF the purchase by
the Whitneys of a $4,000 neck
lace. In the necklace were 40 stones
graded from the great centre stone
each way to stones of the weight OF O
thistle down. All the diamond mar
kets in the world had been searched
to accomplish the graduation. Soon
after there. was q story about some
unpleasantness in the household of q
Western politician of national fame
on account of a loving wife opening @
letter to her husband cont aiming q
bill for diamonds which she had never
received, and there were good many
explanations and friends called in
and peace patched up by the pur-
chase of more diamonds, which did 60
to the wife and not to some other
person.
1t was told of the wife OF q far West
ern Senator that while sitting in the
parlor of O. hotel, after having sent
up her card to the wife of another
Senator living at the hotel, her
attention was attracted to q little
group of ladies gathered about the
diamond merchant who had spread his
wares on the piano sor their inspec-
ton. She listened to their "ahs" and
"ohs," and little screams of ecstatic
admiration. and then crossed the
room and joined the group. She han
died the gems with an appearance of
indifference blended with tie air of q
connoisseur. The other ladies, wives
of Congressman and Government Off
Gals stood back respectfully. Finally,
she picked up great carbuncle pend
ant set in a double row of pearls and
diamonds, and said:
"What do you value that att"
Seventeen hundred dollars" was
the reply.
The lady opened her reticule, took
out check for the amount, put the
pendant in her pocket and calmy re-
sumed her chair. She paralyzed the
group of ladies, and at the same time
added another jewel to collection
which is already one of the richest
owned by any American lady.

duty as delegate from Dakota. While
North Dakota by the last vote expresses
itself as being opposed to division, South
Dakota on the other hand expresses itself
as being decidedly in favor of the PROPOSE

impossible to do just what the people of
both sections taken separately appear to
wish. As the people of the whole territory
appear to desire division, and as the North
is certainly entitled to admission as O.
state and there can be no question about
their desire for statehood, it becomes my
duty to do whatever is in my power to se-
cure an enabling act for North as well as
South Dakota. While it is true the Dem

Temperance Text Books Again.

In answer to inquiries from Mr.. Kiehle
as to whether, in order to instruct under the
temperance act teachers must first pass
an examination and receive q certificate,
and whether the same rule applied to prin-
cipals. Attorney General Clapp says:
The law provides that no certificate
shall be issued to any teacher after the LIST
of January unless such teacher has passed
a unsatisfactory examination in these studies.
After Jan. 1, 1888, no teacher can be en-
ployed who does not possess such a certifi-
cate, but teachers already under employ
ment, secured under certificates heretofore
granted, and which at the time they
were issued were such as the law required,
will be permitted to teach the term OF their
contract without passing this examination
or securing the certificate contemplated by
the temperance text book act. but no con-
tract can be made after the first of Janu-
airy with teacher unless such teacher pos.
sesses q certificate as contemplated by the
act referred to. These suggestions have q
general application to teachers under en-
ployInent on the LIST OF January. have
no doubt but that principals should pos
sess the same qualifications as those en-.
gagged in actual teaching. The law contem-
plates that these branches shall be taught.
In order that they be taught teachers and
principals should be qualified to teach
them.
